Are Public Healthcare Institutions (PHIs) expected to explicitly inform patients about their public scheme accreditation status?
As the application and active accreditation for MediShield Life and MediSave are mandatory for PHIs, we would accept if PHIs do not explicitly inform the patient about their accreditation status. Instead, PHIs should inform patients that they may tap on MediShield Life and MediSave for treatment, as this will indicate that their accreditation status is active for use.
